Does this feel too soon? I'm not done with TS3 yet. There is still a lot of potential yet for the Game, but it seems that after this Fall the only thing available content wise from EA will be in the Store. I mean sure, I'm going to run out and buy it, better yet pre-order it, as I do with just about all of the Sims games for TS3, but maybe they could have waited an extra year on this, maybe two. I know there have been some simmers who have been harping for TS4 for quite a while now, but enjoy what you have now (the unbroken parts).And with Twallan retiring after TS3, I can only HOPE that with Maxis back involved with the Sims Franchise, it won't be the cock up TS3 was for quite a lot of people. We can only hope the old Maxis team is ready to take the Sims to an all new level.As for the sims in the piccies, they don't look half bad, maybe EA has finally realized that most don't like their default eyes and skin. This will probably bite me in the ass, and I'll totally be prepared for an "I told you so", but I'm going to be optimistic and hope that everything turns out alright with it. *fingers crossed.And a bit of info from Hydra.

So, with TS3 still receiving updates to the store and TS4 coming out and probably with its own store, things are certainly going to be interesting. To still get content for TS3 (and you know the prices are gonna jack up for all the sets that won't be coming out on EP or SP) and a brand new game with brand new content to contend with, I'm looking for simmers to split on this one, in which case, was it too soon of EA and Maxis to bring out TS4?

I completely agree with you! This is certainly going to be interesting to follow...

Yes it will be. Unlike TS2, I will still be playing TS3 even after TS4 comes out just because there is still a lot that TS3 can offer. Gonna have to start saving up for a wicked new computer though. Maybe a desktop this time and keep TS3 on my lappie.

I don't think that Sims 4 has come too soon. After all the game is set for launch in 2014, so we have several months to try out the current Sims 3 add-ons. The last Sims 3 expansion pack, 'Into the Future' will come out sometime in November this year, which gives us more or less two months to play this addition.
